Dave Lee Travis Found Guilty Of Indecent Assault

Written By Unknown on Selasa, 23 September 2014 | 22.11

Former Radio 1 presenter Dave Lee Travis has been found guilty of one count of indecent assault.

The ex-Top Of The Pops presenter was cleared of another count of indecent assault, and the jury was undecided on a count of sexual assault.

The 69-year-old DJ stared straight ahead with a stony expression as the verdicts were read out at London's Southwark Crown Court.

Judge Anthony Leonard QC warned him he was looking at "all options" for sentencing.

Dave Lee Travis court case Travis was convicted of groping a woman working on the Mrs Merton Show

Travis, from Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire, was convicted of groping a woman working on the Mrs Merton Show on January 17, 1995.

Prosecutors claimed he approached her as she stood smoking in the corridor and put his hands on her chest for at least 10-15 seconds until she ran away.

She spoke to police about the allegation following Travis' first indecent assault trial earlier this year.

Prosecutor Teresa Hay said the Crown would not be seeking a retrial on the count of sexual assault which the jury was hung on, and a formal verdict of not guilty was entered.

The jury forewoman said they had found Travis guilty of indecent assault by a majority of 10-2.

They returned their verdicts after 19 hours and 15 minutes of deliberations.

During the trial, prosecutors claimed Travis was an "opportunist" who acted as if he had the "perfect right" to grope young women.

Travis, who appeared in court under his real name David Griffin, faced a retrial after jurors failed to reach verdicts on two of the charges in February.

He was first arrested in 2012 under Operation Yewtree, Scotland Yard's investigation into historical sexual abuse in the wake of the Jimmy Savile scandal.

The allegations against him dated back to the 1990s when he was starring in panto, while the most recent was said to have happened during an interview with a journalist at his home in 2008.
